openSUSE 12.2 will not boot on UEFI BIOS HP notebook hard drive

[Lee Craven]

OpenSUSE 12.2 installation fails after completing the installation of all selected software packages and the basic system setup, when the openSUSE installation tried to boot into the new Linux system, to perform the automatic system configuration:

Error No active partition

Good afternoon.

I am a true novice and I have successfully installed openSUSE 12.2 on our non-UEFI BIOS desktop & our laptop.

I have enabled the Legacy Support AND Secure Boot is disabled.

I have found some hits in the openSUSE forum discussing the pro's & con's of Systemd & sysvinit-init but I am unsure what my course of action is to allow
openSUSE 12.2 to boot on the hard drive of this UEFI BIOS HP laptop.

I am able to boot up the Rescue System on the Live DVD I created from http://software.opensuse.org/122/en.

Thanks,
